After seeing the blakladers shorts @doobies place, I think I may have to get a pair .
Those were the US 3/4’s. Can’t get them here thru Blaklader Canada (WRKWEAR). Gotta get them from the US.
They are awesome though. Every chance I get, I tell them at WRKWEAR to dump their current flooring 3/4 model and opt for the US available 3/4’s instead.
Both the Canadian and US supplier can chose whatever the heck they want to carry in each respective company/country. If anybody sees some Blaklader stuff from overseas they would like to see here, let them know. Pester them to death! That’s how shet happens. It’s all ‘Supply and Demand’. That’s how a lot of product selections by distributors works.
Just take a look at the other shorts they offer on the Canadian site.

It’s not the same, lol the 3/4 pants in the states have the big side pockets, the flooring one that is offered to the Canadians don’t look the same or have the same floppy pockets.

And that was the most important factor for me, no floppy pockets, I simply don’t want them.

At least they still have knee pads on the Canadian pair.

Well of course, in a word, hockey! I am more surprised they don’t have a slot for shin pads too on the Canadian versions….lol.

I do wonder if the durability is the same across both pairs of pants. Would the flooring one be able to withstand the same advise as the x1600 pair?

ModeratorI just bought for pick up the cordless drywall screw gun. Now I’m thinking I want to get the one off the prize list that is the corded 450 model that comes with the MA55 autofeeder. But there is also a 250 model that is confusing me that bOsch offers. This pic of the owners manual page nine describes their different capacities, but I’m not sure what it entirely means. Can somebody enlighten me please what each type of drill is for?

@Doobie
why do you want a second drywall gun as a corded version when you are about to receive the SGH182?its pretty simple with the SG250 & SG450
SG250 is a TEK screwgun – so for decking / metal stud applications (the SG250 also includes a different nose piese for drywall applications)
SG450 is a drywall screw gunSG250 – 2500rpm – 3.3lbs – 177 torque
SG450 – 4500rpm – 3.1lbs – 106 torquethe SG450AF is literally nothing but the SG450+MA55 (the auto feed attachment)
Hope that helps 😛

Congrats Austin, that’s a great redemption. I bought mine(same model) and it was worth every penny I paid for it. It really is a game changer when it comes to dust extraction. Especially if you are used to a normal shop vac.

From what I hear you will love it. Keep looking at that myself.
July 30, 2016 at 6:55 pm #549884Thanks guys and yeah the guy I work with has two festool vacs that we use all the time. I cant imagine going back to no dust extraction. I wanted to make sure that if the next job we wernt working together I had one. If I like the bosch enough, I see why no reason I will. I will buy another.

I’m sure you’ll love the Bosch Austin. I’ve actually thought about saving up my points to get a second one since I like the one I have so much. If you have any l-boxxes you’ll really like the integration on the top of the vac, a very handy feature.
